[SOGo] Downgrade Thunderbird from 7.x to 3.1
Hello, Are here people with experiences to downgrade Thunderbird from 7.x to 3.1? My goal is to use the Sogo address book plugin. When it's possible to use it with Thunderbird 7.x I am interested in experiences too.

No, when one of our users accidentally upgraded to TB 7 we found issues using Sogo Connector Lightning Inverse. To fix, we simply put the previous version (3.1.9) back on. To be fair, I haven't bothered putting TB 7.x on my work machine because the Sogo Frontends only shows the add-ons for TB 3.1.x TB 2.x Sent from my iPhone On Nov 2, 2011, at 4:15 AM, Paul van der Vlis p...@vandervlis.nl wrote: Hello, Are here people with experiences to downgrade Thunderbird from 7.x to 3.1?

There are accounts, there are filters, there is learning data for spam, settings, signings, identities, etc. And also downloading imap mail can take some hours when you have much mail. That's the reason that I am intereted if it is possible to uninstall TB7 (without removing it's configuration data and mail) and install TB3.1.

I did it with TB5 and TB6 (updated by accident) and hat no problems. But I have no filters (they are server side) and no spam lerning data (server side as well). All other data were used as before the update. Martin With regards, Paul van der Vlis. -- users@sogo.nu https://inverse.ca/sogo/lists

Yes - but I cant explain how. We had a rogue package management system. People would upgrade their thunderbird using the internal upgrade system and our wpkg system would downgrade them back to 3.1. The only thing it would break is their addons that may have been upgraded at the same time. -- users@sogo.nu https://inverse.ca/sogo/lists

Did you do a downgrade or a new install? We uninstalled Thunderbird 7 and reinstalled TB 3.1.9, but we do not use a program like Revo Uninstaller to do additional cleanup. This should preserve the account settings, etc. and be automatically recognized when Thunderbird launches again. When it was a downgrade: did you see any problems? We didn't see problems doing the downgrade, we needed to get the user back to TB 3.1.9. If we ran into anything severe, I assume our techs would have completely uninstalled Thunderbird+Add-ons and started fresh. The email accounts are IMAP and Cal/CardDAV are used to pull the calendar data address book from the server so uninstalling client-side doesn't impact our user's. -Brendan *Brendan Murtagh* Email Administrator / IT Coordinator *PHONE*: (610) 874-5000 x2232 *FAX*: (610) 874-5030 *WEB*: http://www.powerhrg.com *Power Home Remodeling Group* *Awarded Window Door Magazine's Dealer of the Year Awarded The Top Workplace for Mid-Sized Companies by Philadelphia Inquirer Awarded to the Inc. 5000 Fastest Growing Companies List* /Visit our other websites and social platforms:/ Facebook http://www.facebook.com/PowerHRG | YouTube http://www.youtube.com/PowerHRG | PHRG Reviews http://www.phrgreviews.com | Total Care Installs http://www.totalcareinstalls.com Power Home Remodeling Group is an equal opportunity employer, committed to hiring a diverse and talented workforce.
